Chapter 670: Chapter 31: Zenith Feast [Seeking Monthly Tickets!] _1

"Hide it quickly!"

Upon hearing this voice, Chu Liang immediately became tense, quickly took the token in his palm, and then greeted the voice with a smile on his face.

"Pu Shan!" His joy was indeed genuine. After experiencing life and death, seeing a chatty friend was a very joyful thing.

However, he dared not show the Fairy Friend Circle to Monk Pu Shan - it was likely to bring down the product’s user experience and positive reviews by half.

"Amitabha..." Pu Shan looked almost the same as before with a more restrained divine light and a more solemn demeanor.

But the moment he opened his mouth, it was the familiar taste.

"Quickly, tell me where have you been over the years, I just met Luo Yao two days ago, and she also misses the days when we were undercover together. The Underworld King Sect and the Western Sea Demon Sect have been making quite the ruckus in these years. If you were here, we might have participated. What have you been through over these years? Hey, you don’t know, this time Senior Brothers Pu Cheng and Pu You came with me to visit various immortal sects. I chose Shu Mountain first, it seems like it was meant to be... Huh? You were supposed to tell me about these years, why aren’t you saying anything?"

"..." Chu Liang smiled for a while before finally having a chance to speak: "I have too much to say."

They chatted for a while, of course, mostly Pu Shan talking. Chu Liang also found out why he was here this time.

Yunque Temple, as one of the Nine Heavens Immortal Sects, its location is a real "heaven". It does not have much interaction with other Immortal Sects on ordinary days, quite transcendent.

In the temple, there is a Land of Buddha’s Light, a vast square. Every dusk, the setting sun spreads and covers it like strands of golden yarn, this spectacular sight is called the "Buddha’s light at the top of the sky".

When Yunque Temple has significant matters to discuss with other Immortal Sects, they will hold feasts on the Land of Buddha’s Light. The scale depends on the situation. Such as when a new abbot takes office, as per the procedure, there’s a banquet for Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, sometimes even including all Nine States Immortal Sects. It can be quite grand.

In short, the more people and the bigger the event.

This time, Yunque Temple invited all the Immortal Sects of Four Seas and Nine States. Of course, when I say "all", it only includes large and medium-sized Sects known by Yunque Temple. It’s hard to invite every small sect.

Moreover, the temple dispatched a large number of young monks to visit various Immortal Sects personally to send invitations, showing great importance to this event.

"Such an important matter..." Chu Liang mused, "It must be related to the world’s common people to warrant Yunque Temple’s attention, right?"

"Indeed." Monk Pu Shan replied. "This time, various places in Nine States have been hit by disasters, the dynastic vitality is weakening. The abbot of our temple wishes to convene Nine Heavens and Ten Lands to discuss countermeasures, and also wants to hold a banquet to collect donations for disaster relief."

"Calling for donations, huh..." So it was a charitable banquet, Chu Liang nodded, "We at Red Cotton Peak also intend to provide disaster relief, but it’s inappropriate for us to rally others. It’s great that Yunque Temple is willing to take the lead."

"The abbot often says that we cultivators seem to be transcendent, but are nurtured by the world." Monk Pu Shan joined his palms together and said, "Respect for the people should be like respect for parents, and one’s mortality should be regarded as one’s own."

"The abbot is compassionate." Chu Liang contemplated before saying, "However, just soliciting donations alone, I feel the effect may be limited. The extra money that can be put forward by various Immortal Sects isn’t much, and most of what they can offer isn’t useful to ordinary people..."

"We understand that too, but we just want to contribute in any way we can," Monk Pu Shan said. "The disaster is so vast, human efforts can barely make a difference."

"Actually, I have an idea..." Chu Liang suddenly said, "Can we turn this donation drive into... a charity auction?"

...

After the meal, Chu Liang sent Pu Shan away, and then returned to the Dragon Fishing Pool of Guxuan Peak.

The Little Golden Dragon was brought here back in the day. After making a round to meet everyone at Shu Mountain, it was time for Chu Liang to visit the dragon.

The situation of the Dragon Fishing Pool was slightly different from before. The water was deeper, surrounded by swirling clouds, and there was a curved barrier in the water, cutting the whole pool into two halves.

Like a mandarin duck hot pot.

The pool became like this after the Little Golden Dragon moved in. The disciples of Shu Mountain didn’t dare to approach this dragon-raising place casually, so they didn’t know what happened. They simply glanced over it from above, finding the layout quite interesting.

They referred to the left part where the White Dragon dwelt as the "Big Dragon Kan" and the part where the Little Golden Dragon lived as the "Little Dragon Kan".

Chu Liang came to the Little Dragon Kan first. Through the mist of the clouds, he cast his Divine Sense directly into it. The usual disciples of Shu Mountain would not dare to do that. If it woke up the Real Dragon, they would surely be punished, but Chu Liang was sure he didn’t have to worry about this.

Did he not understand how this Real Dragon came to be?

If we rank by rarity, Shu Mountain has two Real Dragons, but Chu Liang only has one.

If the Real Dragon disturbed Chu Liang, it might end up being punished.

But after scanning around with his Divine Sense and not finding anything, Chu Liang directly dove into the water to check. He found a huge ball of golden light at the bottom of the water, illuminating the surroundings.

Did the Little Golden Dragon turn into an egg again? Was it digesting the Golden Dragon Ball?

Chu Liang didn’t understand the situation and didn’t act rashly. When he surfaced, he immediately came face-to-face with a magnificent dragon head.

"Yes..." the dragon head let out a astonished voice, "Master... My master..."

Chu Liang was stunned for a moment by his call, then reacted by pointing to the Dragon God Token on his forehead, "You are calling out to it, aren’t you?"

"This is the imprint of the eternal master of our dragon race, the supreme lord of the world, Lord Dragon God..." the White Dragon’s voice was like thunder rolling, "Where did you get it?"

"By chance, I suppose." Chu Liang shrugged, didn’t mention about the Dragon God Throne, instead he asked, "Have you ever seen Dragon God?"

"Given my lifespan, I naturally have not seen it, but it is a deep imprint in the memories handed down to every Pure Blood Dragon..." The White Dragon slowly lowered its head, "From now on, you are the messenger of our lord. Our dragon race bows to your presence."

"You’re too courteous." Chu Liang smiled, "The heritage you gave me earlier helped me a lot. For that, I need to thank you."

"The gift of True Scales was intended to evade a big catastrophe." The White Dragon spoke truthfully.

"A big catastrophe?" Chu Liang had heard similar words from the White Dragon before but they hadn’t discussed it in detail. So, he asked, "What is it all about?"

"It was a prophecy left by some people when the Ancient Dragon Nest broke, stating that after thousands of years, a great catastrophe will come, ending the dragon race." The White Dragon replied, "Later, some people acted for the dragon race, predicting that only those seeking shelter in great luck could avoid the catastrophe. There are few places of great luck in the world, so I chose Shu Mountain, and on Shu Mountain... I encountered you."

"You’re saying that I have great luck?" Chu Liang asked.

"Yes, your luck is not abundant, but is indeed quite strong and unique to normal people. It is imperceptible unless probed carefully. It can be described as a sign of hidden wealth." The White Dragon slowly spoke, "But I initially had some doubts. It was a selection made haplessly. Today, seeing your Dragon God Token, it must be destiny that you will help our dragon race escape the catastrophe!"

"Heh." Chu Liang did not get carried away by the compliments he received, but instead responded with a cautious smile.

"A single True Scale is not enough. I kindly request that I present you with a True Soul." The White Dragon circled around, seemingly contemplating, and then spoke.

What the White Dragon meant by presenting a True Soul was in fact gifting the Dragon Soul legacy, just a humbler statement.

However, Chu Liang just shrugged, "It’s not necessary. I already have a dragon soul protecting me. It’s a waste to have too many. If there’s something in the future that needs your help, I’ll come to find you."

After a brief conversation, he flew out of the mist of Dragon Fishing Pool.

Originally, according to his character, he surely wouldn’t miss out on any benefits. Regardless of its use, he would have taken it first.

But he was indeed very careful with the White Dragon’s gifts.

When the White Dragon first gave Chu Liang the Dragon Scale Heritage, he had some suspicions. When it spoke about it, it didn’t seem like it was giving it for free. Clearly, something was desired in return.

Rather than calling it a gift, it was more accurately an investment.

Now it’s attempting the same trick. If something were to actually happen and he was used as a pawn, would he be able to handle the catastrophe that even a Seventh Realm being couldn’t bear?

It’s better not to overcommit.

Of course, he wasn’t just being evasive.

Although the Dragon Soul has powerful abilities, it’s not useful if it’s too mixed up. It’s better to have something pure. The Little Golden Dragon has limitless potential, just binding with it was enough. If two incompatible dragons were both given dragon soul protection, it could lead to conflicts down the road.

The main reason was that Chu Liang had too many assets related to the Dragon race. He not only had the Dragon God Token and was already close to becoming a Pure Blood Dragon, but he also had the White Dragon’s gifts, what else did he need?

Would a billionaire care about the tips given by a millionaire? Especially when you might need to give back even more in the future.

Being straightforward, he thought it beneath him.

With that in mind, as he was walking out, a person flew towards him.

This man had long flowing hair, his bangs covering most of his face, revealing only half of his eyes. He was dressed in a black outfit, giving off a cold and arrogant aura.

Chu Liang glanced at the man and said in surprise, "Ling Ao!"

"Chu Liang?" The man on the opposite side saw him and also broke into a smile.

This man was Ling Ao. He was now also a Deacon Disciple on Shu Mountain, often traveling. Chu Liang didn’t see him when he returned to the mountain, but encountered him here.

"As soon as I came back, I heard that you returned safely and immediately went to Silver Sword Peak to find you, but they said you weren’t there," Ling Ao said, "What are you doing here?"

"So, did you come to find me?" Chu Liang asked.

"Not exactly, they didn’t tell me where you went. I just came here out of habit." Ling Ao laughed, "Didn’t we do well at the Immortal Sect Conference? The progress in my cultivation isn’t bad either, I’ve received recognition from the True Dragon of Zhenshan. Later, the White Dragon gave me a True Scale Heritage, hehe, now it’s like my half-mentor. Whenever I return to the mountain, I come to the Dragon Fishing Pool to pay my respects."

Then, he lowered his voice and said, "Isn’t this all about performing well, so maybe in the future I could ask for a Dragon Soul Heritage?"
